What are your general comments?

"dr beckman approached me and basically came off as a guy id hang out with. the interview was just a conversation basically about my application. we started with high school, and went through college experiences. in the middle he asked if i had questions about iu, which i thought was kind of odd. eventually he asked me the 1 ethical question...and it came across as ''look, i have to ask this but i know you know how to answer this so lets just do it.'' it didnt feel like a ''are you good for our school interview.'' it was more just to get a flavor for my personality or something."
